The gift is from the Bedford Falls Foundation, a donor fund established by Bill and Joanne Conway. It will support 116 scholarships for students pursuing a BSN, 42 MSN program scholarships and 60 scholarships for the school’s Teaching in Nursing and Health Professions Certificate.
The scholarships — to be awarded from spring 2024 through fall 2027 — will cover up to 100 percent of tuition, fees and books. The donation will also support the creation of a faculty position to prepare nursing students for the newest version of the National Council Licensure Examination, and a yearlong pilot residency program to support nurses transitioning from practice to the academic setting.
